Funds are secured through an escrow payment system - where homeowners feel more assured as their funds are not directly paid out to their interior design firm till works are completed. And on the other hand, HomePay also solves an important pain point for interior design firms where their workflows and project management processes are streamlined in an all-in-one app for them, providing the best of both worlds.
